Rebirth of Tang Dynasty as a dad

"Ahem, that's it, that's it, I'll just say it, boss, you are the one who created the test, how could you let the test questions leak out?" the scalper boasted.

But about the kidnapping of his wife and children, he didn't say a word. Since it was a fake test question, it meant that the other party couldn't figure out Du Shaoqing, so I felt relieved.

It seems that I guessed wrong, the other party is likely to be a wave of strange green forests, just for money, although it is unbelievable, but there are not no strange green forests, I heard from Brother Erhu that the five brothers were a strange flower in the mountains back then.

Thinking of this, the scalper seemed to have found a suitable reason for himself. He felt relieved and decided to handle the kidnapping crisis by himself. At least for now, it seems that this is the best way to ensure the safety of his wife and children.

"There is one problem you have to pay attention to. No matter what, you are suspected of helping others to cheat, so don't sell it blatantly and wantonly. Don't let the government people catch you or your people, otherwise I won't I will save you." Du Shaoqing urged.

Um? ?Wu Zhao looked at her husband in surprise, what's going on, you seem to support him in selling it even though you know it's true?

"Ahem, don't worry, my boss, the small ones have always been sold secretly, and I have told my brothers that once someone asks carefully, they will say that they are compared with the test questions from previous years, and there will be no mistakes. Don't be afraid to check." The scalper recovered. Energetic and confident, he patted his chest and said.

Du Shaoqing waved his hand: "Silly, since it's making money, of course we have to promote it as a real guy, otherwise how can we make a lot of money?"

"Ah? But, but isn't this false propaganda? If someone makes a fuss later," the scalper said guiltily.

Du Shaoqing slapped the scalper on the back of the head and scolded: "Find the back of the fart, where is the business you do? Who dares to reveal his identity and say that the one he bought is unqualified for the picture album at the bottom of the box?

It's the same with this test question, whoever dares to find a later account, you can just ridicule it. First, you can't get the real test questions, and you dare not sell them. Second, they want to speculate and buy the real test questions. It's an IQ tax.

Tsk tsk, this is called earning money for fools. "

"Hey, it's really true, thank you for your teaching, the shopkeeper, I understand now." The scalper laughed honestly.

Soon Du Shaoqing took Wu Zhao out of the chamber of commerce, and took Wu Zhao's carriage all the way to the palace.

On the way, Wu Zhao asked the question in his heart, why did he support the increase sale so much?

Du Shaoqing said with a wry smile: "Since the secret has been leaked, it can't be blocked, so I simply do the opposite, and I will discuss the countermeasures with His Majesty. The thief's insidious plan not only stumbled me, but also messed up the whole thing." An imperial examination."

"Hey, it's all my fault. I've been away from the chamber of commerce for too long, and I've got so many eyeliners mixed in," Wu Zhao blamed himself.

"What are you talking about? Compared with making money, the health of you and your daughter comes first, and nothing else matters.

If they dare to plot against me, Du Shaoqing, they must be prepared to be killed.

After you go back, don't show your face, and secretly touch the situation of the scalper's house. Judging from his current situation today, he must have encountered difficulties. He didn't dare to say anything before. He must have been coerced and couldn't tell us.

So we have to help him secretly, and at the same time see if we can follow the clues to find the person behind the scenes. If the leak of this test question can be sent to the scalper, it shows that the person is not small. "

"Husband, are there any collaborating spies among the questioners?" Wu Zhao reminded.

"It's hard to say, the people who wrote the test questions are all imprisoned, and there is also a group of people who escort the test questions and manage the printing, so I have to go to His Majesty quickly."

The two agreed on everything, and each acted separately.

At this time, the emperor Li Er also had the test questions on his desk, and his face was as cold as frost. Li Er was furious. Of course, he didn't believe that his son-in-law Du Shaoqing missed the questions and let his subordinates take the opportunity to make money. .

Li Er was annoyed that someone leaked the secret and ruined the imperial examination that he had painstakingly prepared for.

"Your Majesty, the son-in-law is here." The servant, Gao Gao, reported in a low voice.

"Let him in!"

After Du Shaoqing came in, he dismissed the servant Gao, and there were only Li Er and the others in the political hall.

Li Er slapped the table with his palm and asked, "What do you think about this matter? Your subordinate who sells the answer should be able to ask something."

Du Shaoqing sighed and said: "I went to ask the scalper, he must have been coerced and deceived, and I always thought that the test questions from previous years that I peddled, I had already been secretly sorted out.

As for the investigation of leaks, I have already encouraged scalpers to increase sales”

"Increase the sales? Do you think there will not be enough champions this year?" Li Er was so angry that he really wanted to kick his son-in-law.

Du Shaoqing said confidently: "No, I want to do the opposite, because the number of people who know the test questions is very limited, and they are all controlled by the court. If I say it is fake, then the person who spread the test questions will definitely question it. , Is it because my own people made a mistake, so they will contact again, as long as our eyeliner is in place, we don’t have to worry about not being able to catch the leaker.”

"I'm talking about the imperial examinations, the important matter of selecting talents and employing people. If a mere traitor is a traitor, what's the point of life and death?

You will not be unclear, this year's newcomers are the talent that Datang urgently needs right now, if they fail, it will be next year.

But now it's good, everyone has an answer

What if I start the question again now?Can there be time?Now it is all printing with movable type, as long as there is a title, it can be printed very quickly. "

Li Er asked anxiously.

Du Shaoqing laughed loudly, "That's why I am so calm and composed. There are still two days to go, but I don't want to completely rewrite the question."

"How do you say that?" Li Er was puzzled.

Du Shaoqing explained: "I asked scalpers to publicize, this is the test question for this year, so there must be people snapping up it.

And these people are all good and bad people, or they don't have enough talent, or they don't have enough virtue and want to take shortcuts, in short, they are people who want to cheat.

These people are not what we need, so we can take this opportunity to leave a few original questions on the new test paper, and whoever matches those answers completely by then, hum, is also a means of weeding out bad ones. "

Li Er laughed loudly, "You are bad enough, according to what you say, there is no need to change the test papers at all, and it seems to be feasible to judge the papers in reverse."

"That won't work. If we eliminate too many people, there will be too much shortage of people we can use. Therefore, it is better to leave some flexible people who know how to change the way of saying."

"Okay, since that's the case, let's split things up, and you can come up with questions. I'll handle the matter of catching spies. By the way, you can't use the housekeeper's workshop for this printing. For the sake of confidentiality, use your private small workshop." Li Er made a decision. decided.

A life-and-death contest launched with the help of the imperial examination seems to be about to kick off.

Chapter 617 Li Er Helps Testify (Two in One)

Not long after Du Shaoqing left, Changsun Wuji entered the palace in a panic, holding in his hand a copy of the bought test questions.

Li Er didn't go into details about his plan, but just laughed and said consolingly, "I already know the matter, and I personally took this thing to compare with this year's latest exam questions. It's not the real question. Just a gimmick."

Hu Changsun Wuji heaved a sigh of relief, as if letting go of the hidden worries in his heart.

Then he suddenly remembered something, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that such unscrupulous businessmen who sell exam questions to deceive candidates entering Beijing should be investigated immediately and brought to justice."

Li Er was surprised and said: "Auxiliary machine, this thing is clearly a fake test question, who dares to sell real test questions? Could it be that they have to replace the real test questions in order not to deceive the candidates?"

Changsun Wuji was so choked that he quickly explained: "Ahem, Your Majesty misunderstood, what I mean is that such ill-gotten gains from candidates should not be earned at all.

Countless examinees were born from bad backgrounds, and how many people came to Chang'an to take the exam after they were hungry and hungry. have a very bad impact on the

Li Er pondered: "Well, what you said makes sense.

That being the case, since you are the chief examiner of this scientific examination, I will leave this matter to you to investigate and handle it. The examination will start soon, but nothing can go wrong. "

"The old minister takes orders!" Changsun Wuji resigned.

It seems something is wrong. Didn't Li Er agree to Du Shaoqing before, agreeing to use test questions as bait to eliminate some unscrupulous candidates?Why did Changsun Wuji conduct a strict investigation in the blink of an eye?
